BADLANDS RATTLESNAKE

There’s a sound in the wind like a whisper of death
Sayin’ you best prepare for your final breath
A hellstorm of fire is comin’ our way
Pure fuckin’ carnage on judgement day

But I think we will be alright
‘Cause we know where to go
Grab a hold and hang on tight
Baby, you better know

I’m like a Rattlesnake in the Badlands
Kickin’ up dirt everywhere I go
Like a Rattlesnake in the Badlands
Give me something to bite and I feel like home

The fifth fuckin’ horseman comes straight outta Hades
All dressed in black in a burnin’ Mercedes
The people are shoutin’ and shakin’ their hips
As they dance to the rhythm of the Apocalypse

But I think we will be alright
‘Cause we know where to go
Grab a hold and hang on tight
Baby, you better know

I’m like a Rattlesnake in the Badlands
Kickin’ up dirt everywhere I go
Like a Rattlesnake in the Badlands
Give me something to bite and I feel like home

Like a Rattlesnake in the Badlands
Kickin’ up dirt everywhere I go
Like a Rattlesnake in the Badlands
Give me something to bite and I feel like home

SAPIENS

One for the money, two for the gold
Three for the fame and none for the soul
You’ve got your Midas’ touch
And it never ain’t too much

Five dirty fingers, six for the drugs
One lucky seven, your face on a mug
And a 100K watch
Ooh, it better be top notch

Look at you, so high and great
Teachin’ children how to hate, yeah

You’re goin’ down
While you still wear your crown
Sapiens, Sapiens
Egocentric fool
Turn your brothers into slaves
And send them to their graves
Sapiens, Sapiens
Try to play it cool

Take away the title, take away the suit
Take away your so-called friends and your loot
You’re nothing no more
Nothing but a worn-out whore

Make-up runnin’, take out the trash
Long gone honey gonna kick your ass
Right through the door
Shakin’ on the floor

Homicidal chimpanzee
Extinction is your destiny, yeah

Your head ain’t right
You only came to fight
Sapiens, Sapiens
Get out of here
You make me sick
Evolution played a trick
Sapiens, Sapiens
You’re everywhere

Make the world your blood empire
Settin’ everything on fire

Your head ain’t right
You only came to fight
Sapiens, Sapiens
Get out of here
You make me sick
Evolution played a trick
Sapiens, Sapiens
You’re everywhere
You’re goin’ down
While you still wear your crown
Sapiens, Sapiens
You’re everywhere

ALLSPARK OF DEATH

I know you’re looking for a freedom
That just does not exist
There’s nothing natural about our land
But you hold on to that idea
With your clenched and bloody fist
While mindless fuckin’ war is close at hand

It’s an illusion, it’s a game
Bullshit institution, they’re all the same

Cold as day, dark as night
Full-blown psycho in the pale moonlight
Fight the bison, lose your breath
Pull the trigger on the Allspark Of Death

You’re desperate for answers
But your narrative is skewed
A viewpoint built on trauma and despair
Why should you be held
Accountable for your beliefs
When leaders of the world don’t seem to care?

All-inclusive, frequent flyers
Nuclear sunshine and forest fires

Propaganda death-machine
Bloody hellstorm, nice and clean
Ride the falcon, Turbobreath
Flick the switch on the Allspark Of Death

Drink the magic silver water
Heart of darkness, infernal slaughter

Cold as night, dark as day
Full-blown psycho gonna bite you anyway
Kill the gator, break a sweat
Pull the trigger on the Allspark Of Death
